I saw it in those five year old eyes
That sparkle, that spirit, that fire
She stood there for quite a long time
Just talking with those calves as they walked by
And she's still the light of my life
In my country
Well, I've seen the big waters from each side
And ive rode the mountain trails, and cattle drives
Pushed a team of huskies under Northern Lights
In a little town, flame flown, i met my wife
Coast to coast, this nation is my life
In my country
My country is written on my heart
And no matter where i go, she's never far
You can see it in your children's eyes
Feel it in your heart
It's in the songs about the land
The people and the water
It's my country
I've played every place i could play
Singing songs and telling stories every day
We've driven through the blinding snow at night
Bakin' fans in all the towns and we survived
Coast to coast, this nation is my life
In my country
My country is written on my heart
And no matter where i go, she's never far
You can see it in your children's eyes
Feel it in your heart
It's in the songs about the land
The people and the water
It's my country
And sometimes we might not see eye to eye
But we can never let emotion cause divide
Cause men and women made the sacrifice
They fought for our flag and gave their lives
No matter if i'm wrong, or if you're right
It's our country
Our country is written on our hearts
And no matter where we go, she's never far
We can see it in our children's eyes
Feel it in our hearts
It's in the songs about the land
The people and the water
It's our country
Yeah, it's our country
It's my country
And it's your country
